How to Upload Video to YouTube from iPhone & iPad

You can easily upload a video directly to YouTube right from your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad. This feature has actually been around for a long time, but as YouTube gets more and more popular, it’ll certainly get more useful to have direct uploads like this.

The process of uploading movies from iOS directly to YouTube is very simple:

Open Photos app and tap on the video to upload

Tap the square arrow share button to bring up sharing options, then tap the “YouTube” icon, you’ll see a “preparing” screen as the video gets ready to upload

Login with the YouTube credentials to the account you want to upload the video to

Provide a title, description, and more info if desired

Videos uploaded over wi-fi is recommended, as uploading from a 3G/4G and LTE connection will be more compressed than videos uploaded while connected through Wi-Fi, so keep that in mind before posting something you want in high definition.
